Gradual but clear increase in energy and mental clarity
I didn’t expect an instant effect from CoQ10, and that’s exactly why I appreciated how this one worked. After about five days of consistent use, I noticed a gradual but steady improvement. My mental clarity felt sharper, my focus improved, and my energy throughout the day became more stable. The effect wasn’t sudden or jittery — it built up naturally. I felt more endurance and a clearer head, especially during the day when energy usually dips. This feels like a high-quality CoQ10 that works over time rather than promising quick results. I’m happy with how my body responded.

Mood Booster
I’m a perimenopausal woman who struggles with mood, it’s my absolute worst peri symptom. I was on BHRT pellet for a while which worked, but I stopped due to the cost. My low mood and constant grumpiness came back and someone recommended Saffron as a mood booster. I use Life Extensions for other supplements and it’s a fantastic brand so I got this one, not even realizing it’s promoted for weight loss and helping with snacking. I haven’t noticed it helping with that but I IMMEDIATELY noticed a positive change in my mood. I just purchased my second bottle of this and will be using Optimized Saffron for mood moving forward. I’m so thankful to have found something that works.

Does curb appetite with double dose
I am a serial dieter, always looking for something to suppress appetite. (I have lost over 50lbs and maintained my size 0-2 for many years now). Frankly not many things work, certainly nothing "non prescription"... However, If I plan ahead, take two caspsules before I know I will be hungry (for me I get hungry mid afternoon, so I take it around 1:45pm, and at 3 I am not hungry. I bought two and am subscribing so I am never out. It is 100% worth it for me as I eat less overall and am happier. My husband said I have been in a much better mood lately. I lost 2 pounds in 10 days without changing my diet strategy- It helped me stick to it (last 5 pounds to go)

Works for me!
I LOVE this supplement! As someone who was diagnosed with anxiety, I've been working hard to not return to traditional medicine. It really does help with keeping me focused (as ADHD is part of the anxiety) and calming my emotions (coupled with journaling and breathing techniques. I take it with another product and I've noticed a difference.

I take it for mood and energy now - not much decrease in cravings
I give Amazon 5 stars for offering this very expensive supplement for a great price. I buy from LEF.org all the time and get 1/2 off as a reseller. Amazon's price here beats that price. I know this supplement is one of best on market so the lack of results is not due to the brand. I watched Dr. Oz's impressive graphics on how this supplement is supposed to work on sending serotonin and signals to brain of satisfaction and curing the cravings for sweets and between meal snacks. So I bought 3 bottles to take advantage of the great deal. Well, at end of day one and I noticed nothing. I even took a 3rd pill. I still felt absolutely nothing. Still wanted dessert (chocolate ice cream) and full meal. Took one in morning, another at lunch and another in evening. Its been about a week now so I've updated this review since I wrote I would "if anything changes and I notice any reduction in desires for desserts after my evening meal or between meal cravings." I also originally wrote: "Just another weight loss promise by Dr. OZ which unfortunately wasted my money and did NOTHING." Well I am changing that to now say that I feel Dr.Oz promotes too many products without enough science behind them or without issuing enough warnings of potential harmful side effects. (See below warnings from Web MD) Edited to add : DAY 7: Thought my appetite decreased just a bit the last couple of days in regards to between meal snacking and mainly my desire for sweets. I actually passed on offer for chocolate ice cream for dessert yesterday which is pretty impressive since chocolate is my weakness. I have therefore increased my rating to 2 stars for that reason. However, at times I've notice some nervousness or jitters. Someone wrote it caused them to have insomnia. I haven't had that problem but have experienced nervousness, somewhat manic feelings at times so did more research and found this on WebMD regarding side effects: FROM WEBMD: Saffron seems safe for most people when used as a medicine for up to six weeks. Some possible side effects include dry mouth, anxiety, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, change in appetite, and headache. Allergic reactions can occur in some people. Taking large amounts of saffron is UNSAFE. High doses can cause poisoning, including yellow appearance of the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes; vomiting; dizziness; bloody diarrhea; bleeding from the nose, lips, and eyelids; numbness; and other serious side effects. Doses of 12-20 grams can cause death. Special Precautions & Warnings: Pregnancy and breast-feeding: Don't take saffron in amounts larger than those normally found in food. Larger amounts of saffron can make the uterus contract and might cause a miscarriage. Not enough is known about the safety of using saffron during breast-feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use. Bipolar disorder: Saffron seems to be able to affect mood. There is a concern that it might trigger excitability and impulsive behavior (mania) in people with bipolar disorder. Don't use saffron if you have this condition. Allergies to Lolium, Olea (includes olive), and Salsola plant species: People who are allergic to these plants might also be allergic to saffron. --- end of report ---- 7/23/2013 Edit: Update to original review: I had stopped taking this for a while. I went back to it after reading another article about it. I've been taking it again for about a month or so. I still don't see any changes in food cravings or appetite. I just have to control that as usual. But what I have noticed is this saffron really helps my mood a lot as well as my husband's. We have both noticed that effect. I now have it with my morning coffee and when I don't take I notice the difference. It also gives you extra energy though I'm not sure if that is a result of the improved mood or from a purely physical reason. But I would caution taking it late in the day or early evening as it can keep you awake if you take it too late, especially if you already have problems sleeping.

How can I know if it works?
In a fantasy world, this product would have been responsible for me jumping out of bed each morning with renewed enthusiasm. I was hoping for a significant change to my malaise but so far I can't report a change either way and I have been taking these supplements for a couple months after someone reported it made their friend way less depressed. No clue here- same ol sluggish mental health despite continued use and no stellar benefit to announce.

飲酒時に記憶をなくすのを防ぐ効果があると聞き飲みましたが、効果は分かりませんでした。 飲む量が大量であれば記憶は結局無くなります。
